She only went to look for Camryn because she had promised Callum.
That brat caused trouble and asked her for help.
Elisa said with a smile. “There’s no helping it. Who asked Grandma May to have chosen Camryn for Callum? Speaking of which, it’s Callum’s job to court his wife. Why are you running errands for him?”
“He told Camryn the truth. She started avoiding him, so he came to me for help. I agreed because I thought I only had to persuade her.”
Serena took another sip of juice.
“Camryn is blind, and she doesn’t have Whatsapp. I can’t contact her through Whatsapp. I couldn’t even find her after her phone number changed. Anyway, why do you have time to come over today, Elisa?”
Elisa immediately blushed.
Serena was astonished that Elisa could actually blush
“What happened? Your face turned red.”
Serena went to Elisa’s side right away. She asked nosily, “Do you have someone you like? Who is it? Tell us about him.”
Jasmine said leisurely. “Who else can it be besides Mr. Johnson?”
Serena said, “Oh, so it’s Remy. That’s great. Remy is nice, and you’re a good match for him, Elisa. However, you’re Aunt Audrey’s only daughter. She won’t be able to bear you marrying someone who lives far away. It’s not just her. Your entire family would hate to part with you too.
“Now that you’ve found out, I won’t keep secrets anymore. Aunt Audrey had personally requested me to ask Zack to tell Remy that she can’t bear you marrying someone who lives far away and that he should stay away from you.”
Elisa said, “It’s a little far, but transportation is convenient nowadays. It’ll only take two or three hours by plane.
“Moreover, Remy’s working in Wiltspoon long–term. He has a house in Wiltspoon. He also bought the huge villa beside my family’s and became our neighbor. It’s not far at all.”
Serena and Jasmine exchanged glances and laughed.
Elisa might not have fallen in love with Remy yet, but she was definitely fond of him.
She defended him immediately after it was mentioned that Remy lived too far away and that everyone could not bear with her leaving.
“Why are you guys laughing? I’m not putting in good words for Remy. They’re all facts.”
Elisa pinched Serena.
“Remy confessed to me, but it wasn’t romantic at all. There were no roses or presents. He simply said he liked me.”
Thinking back, she had made things grand when she confessed to Zack.
Serena teased her. “I’ll tell Mr. Johnson to prepare roses and gifts and confess to you again.”
Elisa blushed again.
“Serena, whose side are you on now?”
“Of course I’m on your side. I’m thinking about you and hoping for your happiness.”
Serena wished for Elisa’s happiness more than anybody else.
As long as Elisa did not get married, Serena would always feel that she had stolen Elisa’s happiness.
Elisa liked Zack so much, yet it was Serena who got married to him.
Therefore, Serena sincerely hoped Elisa could quickly find her significant other. She would only feel better if Elisa found her happiness.
Elisa had never blamed Serena. She did not think Serena had snatched Zack away from her.
Elisa said she and Zack were destined to meet but not fated to be together.
It had nothing to do with Serena.
It was a fact that Zack did not love her.
Even without Serena, other women would still appear.
Elisa would rather Serena than other people.
She had said smugly before that Zack even had to acknowledge her as his cousin after being with Serena. She was secretly happy that she could make that arrogant cold man bow down and call her his cousin.
–“Seren.”
Elisa held Serena’s hand.
“Don’t feel guilty for me. You didn’t do me any wrong.”
She knew how Serena felt.
“I’ll be happy. I won’t compromise on marriage. I’ll get married to a good man so I can enjoy happiness.”
Serena nodded.
After Elisa drank the glass of juice and poured her heart out to her best friends, she knew what her choice was.
She left in the evening.
Meanwhile, at York Corporation, Zack exited the office with a huge bouquet once it was time to get off work.
It was the bouquet Serena gave to him personally in the afternoon.
He was a grown man and did not like flowers, but they were a gift from his wife. He would treasure it even if it were a piece of grass.
After taking the elevator to the first floor, he bumped into Josh, who took another elevator down.
Upon seeing Josh, Zack hugged the bouquet closer instinctively. He was not afraid of Josh stealing. his flowers. He was simply drawing Josh’s attention on purpose with his action.
Josh smiled and said, “Serena cent it, right? The bouquet is beautiful.”
Zack maintained his cold and haughty appearance. He said, “Seren gave it to me. I’ll only like the flowers she gives to me. I won’t even spare a glance at flowers given by other people. It’s beautiful, right? I think it looks great too.
“Josh, I remember there’s a flower vase in your office. Where did you buy it? Is there a bigger one?
“I want to get a bigger one than yours. It can’t be helped. The bouquet my wife gave to me is too big. I have no choice but to get a larger vase to fit the bouquet.”
Josh complained about his friend inwardly.
It was nothing more than him receiving a bouquet from his missus, but he acted smugly about it.
Zack was acting like a teenager and not the CEO of York Corporation.
Ever since he fell in love with Serena, the steady and calm side of him disappeared.
Josh thought his friend was childish.
However, if Jasmine were to send a bouquet to him, he would also bring it around the company and show off his lovey–dovey relationship.
“Do you still need to buy a vase? You should move one of the antique vases from your house to the office and place it in your office. Then, you can arrange the flowers Serena gave you in that vase. What a brilliant idea!”
Zack nodded.
“Your idea isn’t bad.”
Josh said, “Don’t you have a business dinner tonight?”
He changed the topic.
It was to prevent Zack from talking about the flowers again.
Zack made it look as if Josh had never received flowers.
“I’m going to pick my wife up She’s accompanying me tonight
Josh hummed in acknowledgment
“I’m going to take a break after working for another week
It would be his and Jasmine’s wedding soon
Zack said, “Isn’t there still half a month until the wedding day?”
As Josh walked outside with Zack he said, “Half a month is only two weeks Can’t I take a break a week in advance?”
